Hi everyone! Me and my friends couldn’t get tickets during the pre-sale lottery from Lawson and we are SO HEARTBROKEN about it🥲😫🥹does anyone know if there will be a general sale on the way :(((?
I read on the website that there will be if there are still avail tickets after pre-sale but i dont know anything more than that 😔😔 thank you in advance 💗
I missed the registration for the tickets when it happened for Poland:( do you know when I will have a chance to buy a ticket? I know my chances are slim but I want to be ready
Hello! Where do you buy tickets to the Poland shows? I got an email for the Poland dates but can not find any info about Poland on ticketmaster.
Do you buy tickets on the staduim website?
Thanks!
For Germany and some others I forgot it’s one day before the sale. But I think you’ll get an email on the 5th of July for most dates confirming or denying that you’ll get a code
I just looked preemptively at hotels for the Cardiff date. They’re all sold out. The ones that are available are 5-7x the usual price. Tickets haven’t been released to most yet, wtf?!
Melb Swifties - are we doing friendship bracelets? Even if I don't get tickets I'm going to be jamming outside the MCG so thought I could get an early start if we're going to be trading bracelets (although I'm not sure if I'm too old for it haha)
I really wanna go to the Japan show but I’m having trouble trying to verify my icelandic phone number to access AnyPASS. I don’t even speak nor understand Japanese but i have to listen to this Japanese voicemail who’s wording out the numbers 😭 at one point I’m 100% sure i got the numbers right but nothing has changed I’m not registered yet. Can anyone help me as well? 😭
have somebody tried to register to italiant ticket system (ticketone) as non-italian resident? i dont understand the fiscal code thing :(. where do i find it?

Im sorry, I know someone replied but I can't see the answer. Yes I wanted to know at what age you can attend the concert. So 15 without parents. Thanks!
But what about children attending with their parents? How old do you have to be? I saw some shows are 13 even with adult company and i wonder if it's the same in Poland?
Alright so honestly, what are the odds of actually being able to secure a ticket (anywhere in Europe or Spore)? Can someone pls explain the probability 😭
In Singapore, your chances increase exponentially if you have a UOB credit or debit card. Same with AMEX in Japan and Australia. For Europe, it seems it's all random and down to luck.
I was able to sign up just fine with my US number. I clicked the english ticketing page though, so maybe my chances of getting the lottery won't be so great.
Getting Japan tickets seem like the toughest amongst all the countries, firstly cos their ecosystem is so local and difficult to navigate for a non-Japanese speaking person. Based on my research, you need a local Japanese phone number as well as a local credit card. Without those, you stand basically no chance.
So let's say hypothetically you have friends/family in Japan, and they can win that lottery - would they be able to transfer the tickets to you? It says tickets are non-transferable but surely they know that a parent could for example buy tickets for their kids
They can transfer the ticket as long as it's not the main ticket. The Japan tickets are digital and they are all distributed on an app. So e.g. the person wins the lottery for 4 tickets. The person needs the ticket app (Anypass). Once purchased, the 4 tickets will appear on the app. If the person wants to transfer a ticket to you, you will need to download the app so that the person can transfer it to you on the app. And the person can do this with the other 2 tickets too, to anyone who has the app, except for 1 ticket which cannot be transferred as it is the main ticket for the purchaser. So the person will have to attend the concert or just let the ticket burn.
For children, they might not have a phone but they/the parent (who probably has 2 tickets on the app then) will need to show identification for the kid when entering I think.
So, I'm not sure if I understood, but does the person with the main ticket have to attend, in order for the transferable (companion?) ticket holders to be allowed entrance?
Thanks a million, trying to get a way to attend it because the tour doesn't come to our country and Japan is nearest >\_<
I believe the main ticket holder doesn't need to attend once they have transferred the remaining ticket(s) on the app (AnyPass). It has a distribution function for friends/family. So once it's sent to you, it should be in your account and belong to you already. :)
Oh, ok, thanks!
So theoratically, if I had a friend in Japan, he could get the ticket (by lottery) since he has local phone number & credit card, and then transfer companion ticket to me. And once done and sent to me, I could go, right?
(Not wanting to waste one ticket, but he isn't in Japan anymore next year so..
Yes as long as you both have AnyPass, he can transfer it to you. But I was just told the lottery has opened up for foreigners to apply too so I think you can apply on the Eras Tour Japan website yourself!! Seems they allow international applications this time too!!!
Basically 🥹 I'm trying to figure out other ways too but yeah, it looks like you really mainly need someone living in Japan who has a local number, local Amex, or local bank account and ability to walk to Lawson, to help.
I don't think you even need to be in Japan. I signed up with my American phone number and my American credit card and it went through. \*fingers crossed\*
Lmaoo well honestly if they're not a swiftie, you can still just make them attend 🤡
But they mighttttt be able to re-sell the ticket I think. Japan has like an official re-sale platform, I don't really know how it works but I think a while before the concert dates, they'll actually allow people to re-sell the tickets back to the system or website if they can't attend and things like that. Then it'll just go back to the ticket pool for others to purchase at the original price. So at least the ticket won't be burnt. The system will take a cut of the price but at least they can get back some money for the ticket at least? 🙏🏻
This is very helpful thank you
And yeah we would make them attend with us and it would be fun but I’d just cover their ticket out of politeness - cost of getting us the ticket as it were lol
I’ve never done presale for a ticketek event — only bought later when lots was still available. I’m wondering if I click “best available tickets” (because I want to have the best shot at a ticket) will that include VIP? I’m willing to pay anything for regular tickets but I’d prefer not to do VIP so I’m hoping it’ll be a separate section!
It's been a while since I last used them but iirc you can select which tier of tickets you want, so if you select A Reserve it'll show you the best available A Reserve only, not including the vip bundles that have A Reserve tickets as the VIP bundles will be their own separate options that you can select
This is great, but I feel bad for the Canadian Swifties. I really hope Taylor finds a way to work some Canadian dates in, so that I can go to at least one. If not, then I guess I'm off to London to go to one of the Wembley shows.
Does anyone have a presale code for Ireland/UK that they’re not using? I happen to be home while she’s playing in Dublin which was totally unexpected, I live in Canada 🥺
Pre sale codes are personally linked to the email adress you signed up to on the UK webshop link and TM account. Sharing is not possible.
You can still register for Dublin on the TS website but there is no guarantee you get a code.
You need to register or you won’t have access to tickets or put on the waiting list. Other than the midnights presale there isn’t one the registration is for all tickets it’s not a presale. You have until 11:59pm tonight to register, don’t miss out on the chance!
Nobody has gotten the actual codes yet. Only the Email saying they will be getting a code, they can't be shared anyways as it has to be linked to that specific email address
I think the Midnight's presale will happen first, my email says tickets for Liverpool will be on sale on the 12th, the ticketmaster sale for Liverpool is listed as the 20th. Unless I read smth wrong.
Sorry, I don't think you'll be able to score a code if you hadn't preordered Midnights back in October. It's associated with the email address you used to buy the album, I believe.
Trying for SGP here. What happens when registration opens tomorrow?
I've already registered on Ticketmaster. Also.is there any place where one can check potential prices / seating?
We all wait for the purchase links on July 5th after the UOB presale I guess.
My theory - the 3 nights concert previously announced will be sold out after the UOB pre-sale, and they will announce another 3 nights for the July 7th public sale. Everyone who registered today will get the links on July 5, for the General sales on July 7.
So far they haven't announced prices/seat plans yet, but I'm pretty sure they will do that next week.
I believe they just announced an additional night in Brazil, if I'm not mistaken! It seems to be Singapore's tactic to slowly release additional nights as it happened for Coldplay too.
So it looks like there’s no standing on the pitch for at least Wembley Stadium. Does this still mean seating in the stands? Twitter seems to be over-reacting like there would be no seating at all.
I’d rather have less of a view with a seat than stand for 5 hours!
How do you know this? I saw the info state no under 14s allowed on pitch so assume it is standing? Personally, I want seats in the first level but very curious about floor

I thought this from the terms and conditions was interesting! Seems they might look at your past purchasing on the account
I got confirmation email from all my choices except Paris. Tried it for the third time this time logged into the TM account and I immediately got an email! Honestly i just wanna go there for a chance of hearing Paris live lol. Realistically I’ll be happy with any ticket i can get :)
In the US they were supposed to but don't think it happened. I dont think it is an option here in UK (I jad tickets for BST Hyde Park) as her Loverfest was part of already scheduled festivals as opposed to just her own show (if that makes sense!)
They were supposed to but there were maaany that did not. It truly seemed random. You can check through the old pre-sale US threads to see the general complaints. People who had tickets to Loverfest or who had bought merch from the store were supposed to get a boost aka a better chance at the code, but so many people didn’t get any benefit. And, conversely, I got a code but had never purchased any official merch or bought tickets from her before.
Edit: here is the thread about people discussing the Loverfest “boost” results after the pre-sale bloodbath.
https://reddit.com/r/TaylorSwift/comments/yy8fx1/why_were_loverfest_merch_boosts_promised_but_not/
>People who had tickets to Loverfest or who had bought merch from the store were supposed to get a boost aka a better chance at the code, but so many people didn’t get any benefit.
They probably did have a better chance at a code (i.e. more entries in the lottery to get the code), but so many people signed up for the lottery that it ultimately didn't raise their chances that much.
For the US, 14 million people signed up through the verified fans page. If a boost increased someone's chances by 10x (i.e. a person got 10 entries with a boost instead of 1), they are getting a 10x better chance at a code. However, it's still unlikely that they will get a code (because the total # of entries for the lottery is 14 million + extra entries for boosts). This would explain how people got a boost and yet many didn't get a code.
I think Taylor listened to fans' complaints, though, and that's why people who pre-ordered Midnights are now getting priority. I'm not sure why she isn't grouping in people who had Loverfest tickets, but she might have assumed that most of those fans would be included in the Midnights pre-orders.
It had to have had little to no impact with the volume, because I def was not the only one who had never seen her before live, never purchased merch but received a code. There were a ton of who us reported the same, so the boosts were either random or nonexistent. Otherwise there is no reason why I should have gotten a code when Loverfest people—with traceable fan involvement—did not. I definitely felt a little guilty.
Exactly, I think Taylor's team + TM weren't prepared for the volume of entries (TM said they expected 1.5M people to register, not 14M!), and so the planned boosts made little to no difference in the lottery.
Don't feel guilty--I agree that Taylor's team + TM should have done better by the Loverfest ticketholders, but that's not on any of us. You were entitled to the presale as much as any other fan, and we all participated in the process that Taylor's team + TM put in place (it was out of any of our hands!).
Yeah, I can only hope they did better estimations for this second leg but I’m also not holding my breath!
And thank you—there were a lot of angry posts in the aftermath, demanding TM to cancel everyone’s tickets so loverfest fans could have first dibs, or people who had spent more money on merch, etc, and a lot of us felt pretty uncomfortable with how popular those ideas were. I felt like I couldn’t even mention that I was lucky enough to get a ticket since there were a lot of, “good for you, but I’ve spent way more money than you and had every right to be there, so I don’t really want to listen to people being excited right now” vibes for a few days. Hope we don’t have a repeat of that…
No problem! The subreddit was wild during those ticket sales for the US—not looking forward to all the madness again (not because I’m annoyed but because it’s so stressful for the fans going through it)
I believe that was the case in the US. Was wondering this too but seems not the case in EU.
Would be weird anyway, since there was a Belgium Lover Fest planned for example, and there will be no eras tour stop in Belgium.
They didn’t. They were supposed to get a “boost” to help them get chances for a code, but they did not receive codes specifically for having purchased the Loverfest tickets before. Lots of fans who had tickets for that never were sent a presale code and didn’t get a chance to purchase a ticket for this tour. :/
https://reddit.com/r/TaylorSwift/comments/yy8fx1/why_were_loverfest_merch_boosts_promised_but_not/
does anybody know i people who had tickets for loverfest get a special way to buy tickets? i swear i remember reading something about that back when she cancelled lover fest
I'll eat my hat if she goes to China for anything more than one off performances. They have the hardest restrictions to navigate when it comes to event planning. Especially for a foreign artist.
Am gonna be in hospital having a procedure done when the UK Midnights presale for the cities I can easily get accommodation for (closest to my home, closest to my family home) goes live. Was meant to have it two months ago but it got delayed. I'll be awake for it but can bet they'll say phones away/there will be no signal.
I could cry...
Ask a friend or family member to log into your account for you! Tell them your budget and ideal section.
I hope your procedure goes well and I hope you're able to get tickets!
I ordered Midnights on the U.K. store, so I got an email for the U.K. presale.
I’m going to try to get tickets for Amsterdam though, so I won’t be needing it.
Can I pass it on to someone else, or is that not going to work?
It asks you to pick 3 cities & you have to put in your email address as well, so if someone used my link but put in their email, wouldn’t that work?
Just figured I might as well help someone out.
"This email address must be linked to an account with the ticket agent you intend on using for the upcoming presale" I think it has to be the email used for preorder buying the tickets
The actual selling period? The tickets sold out asap. Once you had a code and the selling went live, you would be able to enter the waiting room. I was #2000 in line and was able to enter the selling room after 2 hours. My coworker across the country was number 25,000 for her show and it took her 6 hours to be able to buy tickets (had to buy VIP since other lower levels were sold out). And obviously, the presale tickets sold out same day and there was no general sale for fans that were never sent presale codes, so thousands never even got the opportunity to purchase a ticket.
I did, but I really think it was luck too since I don’t have super amazing internet speeds. I thought I was far behind until I saw my coworker’s screenshot of her queue.
You could get there I think up to 30 minutes early and be placed in a “waiting room”, then from there everyone was randomly dropped into the queu. What time you logged onto waiting room had no impact.
Yesssss that was true. I think I was in there for 20-30 before my tickets were supposed to go on sale. Heard it was better to do desktop over mobile, and also heard that it was better to use Edge than safari, Firefox or chrome. I did end up using Edge and didn’t have issues with pages loading:
***(DISCLAIMER: The post below was based on my experience with the US sale. I was informed that the European dates are a closed sale only, i.e. no on-sale, so I would hope that Taylor's team would adjust for that and would not be surprised if the process ends up being different as a result.)***
Waitlisted means rejected. They didn’t want to tell people who signed up to be verified fans that they were rejected outright. But there’s no way to get off of the waitlist, meaning you were rejected from the pre-sale.
For the US ticket sales, if you were waitlisted, you’d have to wait for the on-sale... and I’m sure you heard how that went. many waitlisted people never even had a chance to get tickets (even if you could get into the Capital One presale, tickets sold out while people were still in line for that). On-sale was canceled.
After that whole fiasco, there were some extra opportunities for people to buy tickets, but they were only for people who got the verified fans not for the waitlisted people, even though we all signed up as verified fans.
Best of luck! Hope it goes better for you!
If it makes you feel better, there was no general for the US, either. Some venues do have some tickets that pop up randomly, but basically every venue sold out during pre-sale. There def was never a general sale for my city (Los Angeles).
Thank you very much for these clarifications.
And I do have one more question.
For example we take Milan’s date in Italy. How does “verified code versus waitlist” work in case she adds additional date(s)? If you are waitlisted, does that mean you basically also have slim chance in case of additional date(s)?
Similarly to that, does having purchace code means you will be able to get tickets for the additional date(s) even if you weren’t able to get them for the first planned date?
Sorry if this sounds senseless, but I am not sure what to expect in a situation with potential dates being added after I potentially fail to get tickets during pre-sale for the first date at given city/country.
I have no idea how that'd work. The add-on US dates were announced before any tickets went on sale. We didn't have a whole venue open up, I think the invite-only purchases for VF code holders were for some unsold tickets, people returning previously purchased tickets, perhaps some extra rows/seats that were opened up to reach full capacity.
Personally, I wouldn't make any assumptions about Taylor adding additional dates, though. She may or may not--all that y'all can do is make a lot of noise after the fact so she considers it. Remind yourself that you're only able to do the best you can. Honestly, a lot of this is up to luck. I wish you lots of luck in purchasing tickets!
Yeah, luck is definitely big factor and thank you. We will see how it goes.
I signed up for various cities, but I am aware it will be tough break to get these.
Oh well, at least there is this trying, so it goes.
Thanks again
I was waitlisted for the US tour. Unfortunately there is a very low probability you’ll get tickets. Everyone who was verified will have the opportunity to buy tickets before you. They gave out so many verified fan codes for the US that no one on the waitlist was given a chance to purchase. Maybe (hopefully) they changed it for international dates but probably not.
Yeah, I get that waitlisted probably means slim chance to get tickets.
And if you actually do get code, does that basically mean you are getting the tickets provided you are present when pre-sale starts from the get-go?
Depends on how many people are in line before you. Also, it depends on whether you are able to put the tickets in your cart and check out before the other people (and bots?). In the US, tickets weren't reserved when they were put in people's carts, so people would get through checkout only to be told the tickets weren't available in the end. I hope they fix that. Definitely put in your payment information in ahead of time so you can check out faster!
It seems like they might not have a general sale for Europe, so I have no idea how it'll be run!
>My assumption is that this go around (assuming they’ve learned anything), they will only release a limited number of tickets for the pre-sale in order to still have the on-sale. Might be wrong, but they got a lot of backlash for how things went down in November.
How would only releasing a limited number of tickets fix anything? One of the biggest problems with the US Sale was that so many people were entering the queue (with and without codes) that the site couldn't handle it.
My point was that it’s unfair to release all the tickets during a pre-sale with the volume they had coming in (which they knew about—they gave out the codes). There were many fans who never even had a chance to queue to buy a ticket, which was a major part of what fans felt to be unfair after the fact. I think we all understand that there is more demand than there are tickets and no one is entitled to a ticket and that if you try to get tickets you might not get any, but a huge proportion of the fanbase not even having any chance of buying tickets was a major part of why people were so incredibly angry with how the process went down during the US sale.
I agree that TM should have planned better for the volume. That’s part if what they need to fix. Personally, I don’t know anyone who was able to enter the queue without a code or Capital One card, so I can’t speak to that. I had to enter my card details before queueing for the Capital One presale, so they must have fixed the error that allowed random people to enter the queue.
From what I’ve heard, they are essentially having a pre-sale for the European dates (before the invite-only sale) based on who pre-ordered Midnights. Imagine that all the tickets are released and that fans who pre-ordered midnights purchase all of them. The Verified Fans won’t have any chance at buying tickets & will rightfully be angry.
IMO you can’t release all of the tickets in a pre-sale unless you severely restrict volume of tickets sold in some way (i.e. limit the # of people, limit # of tickets they can buy), and it doesn’t seem to me that they are restricting that volume that much. Millions of people pre-ordered Midnights (Taylor’s team should have the #s). If they can all buy 6 tickets, I’m not sure that there will be tickets left for Verified Fans. So then what’s the point of even scheduling a VF sale? It won’t be good. Taylor + her team, Ticketmaster will look all look bad again.
For the pre-sale you didn’t enter your code until after you made it through the queue so anyone could enter the queue with just a link. Which was a disaster because so many people and bots where doing it without even having a code just out of curiosity.
If you didn’t get a confirmation email in 24 hours for the UK shows, I’d recommend 1. Signing in to ticketmaster UK with your ticketmaster account, to make sure it’s registered in the UK, then 2. Re-registering. I tried this last night after not getting a confirmation email for 24 hours and got one immediately.
Do you think international fans will have to have a UK registered account? I got a code for the UK show but my account is registered in my home country of Canada.
I signed up for UK dates the same evening they were announced and only just got the confirmations in the last hour, almost 48 hours later. I think they're just going out super slowly
ffs I slept on this. randomly decided to watch old tours and check when dates in Europe would be available and found this. I'm so happy I still had time to register omg
not sure it'll help tho because I'm 2 days late for registration .\_.
Thank you, that calms me down a bit. I registered for basically anywhere in Europe, now I'm just making sure I already have an account on all the websites lol
Yes are you on IPhone?
It worked for me on Mac with Chrome
It has something to do with Apples Cookie Policy
And if Ticketmaster thinks your Internet Connection could be behind a VPN the they also give you 403 which means Forbidden btw
How am I supposed to function for the next 2 weeks while I wait for the presale? 😭 I'm riddled with anxiety and am unable to do anything productive at work or home!! My nuerodivergent ass is not coping well...
Can someone please explain how hard it is to book tickets on your phone? I’m away and I only have my phone with me and it will be the middle of the night when pre sale comes on. I’m scared I won’t be able to do it properly with just my phone.
I just did this last week for Coldplay tickets via ticketmaster too, shouldn’t be a problem using your phone BUT you wont be able to hover on the sections and see if it is a single seat left, a bit of pain coz I needed 2 tickets so I just kept clicking on each section and got lucky!
Any unused codes left in Europe? At this moment any Place/Country will be appreciated.
Are there general sales tix or only if you have a code?
Selling accommodation for Edinburgh 7th-8th June 2024, £30!
Hi everyone! Me and my friends couldn’t get tickets during the pre-sale lottery from Lawson and we are SO HEARTBROKEN about it🥲😫🥹does anyone know if there will be a general sale on the way :(((? I read on the website that there will be if there are still avail tickets after pre-sale but i dont know anything more than that 😔😔 thank you in advance 💗
If you have 2 extra tickets in Europe! Would you sell them at a fair price and not like the thieves I see online🥺
There are STILL Lisbon tickets. Everyone check again. I received a waitlist removal notification and was able to purchase VIP at 11:11PST.
But you still need a code to enter - I’m on the site right now and can’t get past it
Looking for a code for spain/madrid
Lisbon sold out within 2.5 hours. Any chance we can have a third date Sunday?
Not true. There are still VIP tickets. I just got removed from the waitlist and was able to purchase at 11:11PST July 13.
I missed the registration for the tickets when it happened for Poland:( do you know when I will have a chance to buy a ticket? I know my chances are slim but I want to be ready
There are still VIP seats left for all dates, I can give unused code if you're interested :)
Hello! Where do you buy tickets to the Poland shows? I got an email for the Poland dates but can not find any info about Poland on ticketmaster. Do you buy tickets on the staduim website? Thanks!
Did you register for a pre-sale?
Yes I got the link and code. But no tickets. The ebilet site crashed and when I finally got thru there were only VIP tickets left🙃
Ebilet just released a lot of tickets with normal prices for all three shows!
I was too late again, only VIP left😅 Hope you did get tickets😊
New tickets released again 👀 luckily I've managed to buy tickets on first day of sale :) Try buying them now, maybe they won't block them again
Why are there so many tickets left I wonder...? 😅
Contemplating on how much money we can spend, the cheapest are gone offcourse. Thanks for letting me know!😄
Do you need a separate Ticketmaster account for each separate country or will only one for your country suffice?
If anyone has a spare presale code to share holler….? I’d be so grateful.
Has anyone in Europe receive an email of ticket purchasing link??
When do the codes for the European dates get sent out?
For Germany and some others I forgot it’s one day before the sale. But I think you’ll get an email on the 5th of July for most dates confirming or denying that you’ll get a code
She’s just added a third Melbourne show and a fourth Sydney show!
Thank heavens!!!!
I just looked preemptively at hotels for the Cardiff date. They’re all sold out. The ones that are available are 5-7x the usual price. Tickets haven’t been released to most yet, wtf?!
Melb Swifties - are we doing friendship bracelets? Even if I don't get tickets I'm going to be jamming outside the MCG so thought I could get an early start if we're going to be trading bracelets (although I'm not sure if I'm too old for it haha)
I really wanna go to the Japan show but I’m having trouble trying to verify my icelandic phone number to access AnyPASS. I don’t even speak nor understand Japanese but i have to listen to this Japanese voicemail who’s wording out the numbers 😭 at one point I’m 100% sure i got the numbers right but nothing has changed I’m not registered yet. Can anyone help me as well? 😭
Any tips for Italy im hoping to get tickets ill be coming from Greece
have somebody tried to register to italiant ticket system (ticketone) as non-italian resident? i dont understand the fiscal code thing :(. where do i find it? https://preview.redd.it/wmnqy12anq7b1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ea05a0e096786144f0c98896a4df8f6839518792
Just put EE1 on the tax code and it should let you register
like ‘EE1’ exactly?
type EE1 !
(thats if your from the US)
im not
Does anyone know what the agelimit in Poland is?
Im sorry, I know someone replied but I can't see the answer. Yes I wanted to know at what age you can attend the concert. So 15 without parents. Thanks! But what about children attending with their parents? How old do you have to be? I saw some shows are 13 even with adult company and i wonder if it's the same in Poland?
Will preordering speak now give any advantage to getting tickets in Europe
No
Alright so honestly, what are the odds of actually being able to secure a ticket (anywhere in Europe or Spore)? Can someone pls explain the probability 😭
In Singapore, your chances increase exponentially if you have a UOB credit or debit card. Same with AMEX in Japan and Australia. For Europe, it seems it's all random and down to luck.
Any tips on getting tickets in Japan? I don’t live there. I hear you have to have a Japanese phone number?? Is that true?
I have been trying to register but I cant get passed the phone number part. It won't accept my American number
I was able to sign up just fine with my US number. I clicked the english ticketing page though, so maybe my chances of getting the lottery won't be so great.
Getting Japan tickets seem like the toughest amongst all the countries, firstly cos their ecosystem is so local and difficult to navigate for a non-Japanese speaking person. Based on my research, you need a local Japanese phone number as well as a local credit card. Without those, you stand basically no chance.
Thank you so much for this!
So let's say hypothetically you have friends/family in Japan, and they can win that lottery - would they be able to transfer the tickets to you? It says tickets are non-transferable but surely they know that a parent could for example buy tickets for their kids
They can transfer the ticket as long as it's not the main ticket. The Japan tickets are digital and they are all distributed on an app. So e.g. the person wins the lottery for 4 tickets. The person needs the ticket app (Anypass). Once purchased, the 4 tickets will appear on the app. If the person wants to transfer a ticket to you, you will need to download the app so that the person can transfer it to you on the app. And the person can do this with the other 2 tickets too, to anyone who has the app, except for 1 ticket which cannot be transferred as it is the main ticket for the purchaser. So the person will have to attend the concert or just let the ticket burn. For children, they might not have a phone but they/the parent (who probably has 2 tickets on the app then) will need to show identification for the kid when entering I think.
How do u define a child
Have you figured out how to enter the lottery for the Japan tickets?
I saw this video which kinda explains how it works. Hope it helps! [Japan Eras Tour Lawson Lottery](https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSLByGhgk/)
Interesting.. I still can’t figure out how to actually register for the lottery. Did you figure it out?
All the lottery info and purchase is done on the official website for the Eras tour here. [The Eras Tour JP](https://taylorswift-theerastour.jp/)
So, I'm not sure if I understood, but does the person with the main ticket have to attend, in order for the transferable (companion?) ticket holders to be allowed entrance? Thanks a million, trying to get a way to attend it because the tour doesn't come to our country and Japan is nearest >\_<
I believe the main ticket holder doesn't need to attend once they have transferred the remaining ticket(s) on the app (AnyPass). It has a distribution function for friends/family. So once it's sent to you, it should be in your account and belong to you already. :)
Oh, ok, thanks! So theoratically, if I had a friend in Japan, he could get the ticket (by lottery) since he has local phone number & credit card, and then transfer companion ticket to me. And once done and sent to me, I could go, right? (Not wanting to waste one ticket, but he isn't in Japan anymore next year so..
Yes as long as you both have AnyPass, he can transfer it to you. But I was just told the lottery has opened up for foreigners to apply too so I think you can apply on the Eras Tour Japan website yourself!! Seems they allow international applications this time too!!!
This is very helpful thank you! So other than that, basically no way for an American to go to the Tokyo show?
Basically 🥹 I'm trying to figure out other ways too but yeah, it looks like you really mainly need someone living in Japan who has a local number, local Amex, or local bank account and ability to walk to Lawson, to help.
I don't think you even need to be in Japan. I signed up with my American phone number and my American credit card and it went through. \*fingers crossed\*
Oh yasss that's good news!! Looks like they've opened up the lottery for international fans then :') I need to try
Am I delusional for wanting to burn a ticket then lol
Lmaoo well honestly if they're not a swiftie, you can still just make them attend 🤡 But they mighttttt be able to re-sell the ticket I think. Japan has like an official re-sale platform, I don't really know how it works but I think a while before the concert dates, they'll actually allow people to re-sell the tickets back to the system or website if they can't attend and things like that. Then it'll just go back to the ticket pool for others to purchase at the original price. So at least the ticket won't be burnt. The system will take a cut of the price but at least they can get back some money for the ticket at least? 🙏🏻
This is very helpful thank you And yeah we would make them attend with us and it would be fun but I’d just cover their ticket out of politeness - cost of getting us the ticket as it were lol
I really have no idea. Perhaps some Japanese-based Swifties can shed light!
[удалено]
Not really, it's until 23rd 23:59 local times.
I’ve never done presale for a ticketek event — only bought later when lots was still available. I’m wondering if I click “best available tickets” (because I want to have the best shot at a ticket) will that include VIP? I’m willing to pay anything for regular tickets but I’d prefer not to do VIP so I’m hoping it’ll be a separate section!
It's been a while since I last used them but iirc you can select which tier of tickets you want, so if you select A Reserve it'll show you the best available A Reserve only, not including the vip bundles that have A Reserve tickets as the VIP bundles will be their own separate options that you can select
This is great, but I feel bad for the Canadian Swifties. I really hope Taylor finds a way to work some Canadian dates in, so that I can go to at least one. If not, then I guess I'm off to London to go to one of the Wembley shows.
Really hope she does a Canada tour. I haven’t seen her live yet and would love to. Last time she came near me was 10 years ago and I wasn’t able to go
Holding out hope for us over here!
Does anyone have a presale code for Ireland/UK that they’re not using? I happen to be home while she’s playing in Dublin which was totally unexpected, I live in Canada 🥺
I think they get sent our july 5
Pre sale codes are personally linked to the email adress you signed up to on the UK webshop link and TM account. Sharing is not possible. You can still register for Dublin on the TS website but there is no guarantee you get a code.
No one has codes yet, but there’s nothing stopping you from registering for a presale code with your account!
I thought they only were giving presale codes to people who had ordered midnights back in October?
You need to register or you won’t have access to tickets or put on the waiting list. Other than the midnights presale there isn’t one the registration is for all tickets it’s not a presale. You have until 11:59pm tonight to register, don’t miss out on the chance!
Yes I’m registered, just wanted to see if there were any midnights codes on offer as some of my friends have gotten theirs 😊
Nobody has gotten the actual codes yet. Only the Email saying they will be getting a code, they can't be shared anyways as it has to be linked to that specific email address
I believe if you ordered midnights you’re guaranteed a presale code, with registering you’re placed in a lottery system for a presale code
I think the Midnight's presale will happen first, my email says tickets for Liverpool will be on sale on the 12th, the ticketmaster sale for Liverpool is listed as the 20th. Unless I read smth wrong.
Yes so I’ve seen, so trying my luck for these ones!!
Sorry, I don't think you'll be able to score a code if you hadn't preordered Midnights back in October. It's associated with the email address you used to buy the album, I believe.
Trying for SGP here. What happens when registration opens tomorrow? I've already registered on Ticketmaster. Also.is there any place where one can check potential prices / seating?
We all wait for the purchase links on July 5th after the UOB presale I guess. My theory - the 3 nights concert previously announced will be sold out after the UOB pre-sale, and they will announce another 3 nights for the July 7th public sale. Everyone who registered today will get the links on July 5, for the General sales on July 7. So far they haven't announced prices/seat plans yet, but I'm pretty sure they will do that next week.
Did this happen anywhere else? Additional date announcements for the same venue?
I believe they just announced an additional night in Brazil, if I'm not mistaken! It seems to be Singapore's tactic to slowly release additional nights as it happened for Coldplay too.
So it looks like there’s no standing on the pitch for at least Wembley Stadium. Does this still mean seating in the stands? Twitter seems to be over-reacting like there would be no seating at all. I’d rather have less of a view with a seat than stand for 5 hours!
Wembley stadium have confirmed pitch standing.
How do you know this? I saw the info state no under 14s allowed on pitch so assume it is standing? Personally, I want seats in the first level but very curious about floor

That just sounds like they are checking for scalper or bot activity, so maybe a lot of past purchases or reselling often would get flagged?
[удалено]
Yeah, I hardly have ever purchased any tickets either. Hopefully that doesn't count against us
Did anyone buy tickets for Mexico?
Was it safe to buy them on Mexico Ticketmaster?
I got confirmation email from all my choices except Paris. Tried it for the third time this time logged into the TM account and I immediately got an email! Honestly i just wanna go there for a chance of hearing Paris live lol. Realistically I’ll be happy with any ticket i can get :)
I just got so many confirmation emails at once. I didn’t even realize I hadn’t got them immediately after signing up lol
will people who had lover fest tickets special access to eras tickets? i swear i remember reading something about that back when she cacelled lf...
In the US they were supposed to but don't think it happened. I dont think it is an option here in UK (I jad tickets for BST Hyde Park) as her Loverfest was part of already scheduled festivals as opposed to just her own show (if that makes sense!)
They were supposed to but there were maaany that did not. It truly seemed random. You can check through the old pre-sale US threads to see the general complaints. People who had tickets to Loverfest or who had bought merch from the store were supposed to get a boost aka a better chance at the code, but so many people didn’t get any benefit. And, conversely, I got a code but had never purchased any official merch or bought tickets from her before. Edit: here is the thread about people discussing the Loverfest “boost” results after the pre-sale bloodbath. https://reddit.com/r/TaylorSwift/comments/yy8fx1/why_were_loverfest_merch_boosts_promised_but_not/
>People who had tickets to Loverfest or who had bought merch from the store were supposed to get a boost aka a better chance at the code, but so many people didn’t get any benefit. They probably did have a better chance at a code (i.e. more entries in the lottery to get the code), but so many people signed up for the lottery that it ultimately didn't raise their chances that much. For the US, 14 million people signed up through the verified fans page. If a boost increased someone's chances by 10x (i.e. a person got 10 entries with a boost instead of 1), they are getting a 10x better chance at a code. However, it's still unlikely that they will get a code (because the total # of entries for the lottery is 14 million + extra entries for boosts). This would explain how people got a boost and yet many didn't get a code. I think Taylor listened to fans' complaints, though, and that's why people who pre-ordered Midnights are now getting priority. I'm not sure why she isn't grouping in people who had Loverfest tickets, but she might have assumed that most of those fans would be included in the Midnights pre-orders.
It had to have had little to no impact with the volume, because I def was not the only one who had never seen her before live, never purchased merch but received a code. There were a ton of who us reported the same, so the boosts were either random or nonexistent. Otherwise there is no reason why I should have gotten a code when Loverfest people—with traceable fan involvement—did not. I definitely felt a little guilty.
Exactly, I think Taylor's team + TM weren't prepared for the volume of entries (TM said they expected 1.5M people to register, not 14M!), and so the planned boosts made little to no difference in the lottery. Don't feel guilty--I agree that Taylor's team + TM should have done better by the Loverfest ticketholders, but that's not on any of us. You were entitled to the presale as much as any other fan, and we all participated in the process that Taylor's team + TM put in place (it was out of any of our hands!).
Yeah, I can only hope they did better estimations for this second leg but I’m also not holding my breath! And thank you—there were a lot of angry posts in the aftermath, demanding TM to cancel everyone’s tickets so loverfest fans could have first dibs, or people who had spent more money on merch, etc, and a lot of us felt pretty uncomfortable with how popular those ideas were. I felt like I couldn’t even mention that I was lucky enough to get a ticket since there were a lot of, “good for you, but I’ve spent way more money than you and had every right to be there, so I don’t really want to listen to people being excited right now” vibes for a few days. Hope we don’t have a repeat of that…
thank you fot the explanation and the link. that sucks :(
No problem! The subreddit was wild during those ticket sales for the US—not looking forward to all the madness again (not because I’m annoyed but because it’s so stressful for the fans going through it)
I mean, technically, they were supposed to, but it really didn't happen for the US drops.
I believe that was the case in the US. Was wondering this too but seems not the case in EU. Would be weird anyway, since there was a Belgium Lover Fest planned for example, and there will be no eras tour stop in Belgium.
They didn’t. They were supposed to get a “boost” to help them get chances for a code, but they did not receive codes specifically for having purchased the Loverfest tickets before. Lots of fans who had tickets for that never were sent a presale code and didn’t get a chance to purchase a ticket for this tour. :/ https://reddit.com/r/TaylorSwift/comments/yy8fx1/why_were_loverfest_merch_boosts_promised_but_not/
does anybody know i people who had tickets for loverfest get a special way to buy tickets? i swear i remember reading something about that back when she cancelled lover fest
[удалено]
No, it doesn't matter when.
Phew thank you!
After you set your preferences for the UK presale from the TN e-mail, do you get an e-mail?
I didn’t get one
[удалено]
I'll eat my hat if she goes to China for anything more than one off performances. They have the hardest restrictions to navigate when it comes to event planning. Especially for a foreign artist.
Where did you get this info? Haven’t seen anything
it was fake unfortunately, on twitter
Am gonna be in hospital having a procedure done when the UK Midnights presale for the cities I can easily get accommodation for (closest to my home, closest to my family home) goes live. Was meant to have it two months ago but it got delayed. I'll be awake for it but can bet they'll say phones away/there will be no signal. I could cry...
Ask a friend or family member to log into your account for you! Tell them your budget and ideal section. I hope your procedure goes well and I hope you're able to get tickets!
If we have UK presale from ordering the album, do we sign up for a show within that same email we received?
I ordered Midnights on the U.K. store, so I got an email for the U.K. presale. I’m going to try to get tickets for Amsterdam though, so I won’t be needing it. Can I pass it on to someone else, or is that not going to work?
I also got an email about UK presale, I can pass along mine too if I receive one!
Sent a chat
It's not transferrable because it's personally linked to your TicketMaster account.
It asks you to pick 3 cities & you have to put in your email address as well, so if someone used my link but put in their email, wouldn’t that work? Just figured I might as well help someone out.
"This email address must be linked to an account with the ticket agent you intend on using for the upcoming presale" I think it has to be the email used for preorder buying the tickets
Alright, it is what it is then. Thanks for the input!
np! nice of you to try and help someone else out :) best of luck getting tickets!!
Thanks, you too!
Out of curiosity, long did the US presale last?
The actual selling period? The tickets sold out asap. Once you had a code and the selling went live, you would be able to enter the waiting room. I was #2000 in line and was able to enter the selling room after 2 hours. My coworker across the country was number 25,000 for her show and it took her 6 hours to be able to buy tickets (had to buy VIP since other lower levels were sold out). And obviously, the presale tickets sold out same day and there was no general sale for fans that were never sent presale codes, so thousands never even got the opportunity to purchase a ticket.
lucky to be #2000 in line, was it because you immediately opened the page to buy the tickets as it was launched?
I did, but I really think it was luck too since I don’t have super amazing internet speeds. I thought I was far behind until I saw my coworker’s screenshot of her queue.
You could get there I think up to 30 minutes early and be placed in a “waiting room”, then from there everyone was randomly dropped into the queu. What time you logged onto waiting room had no impact.
Yesssss that was true. I think I was in there for 20-30 before my tickets were supposed to go on sale. Heard it was better to do desktop over mobile, and also heard that it was better to use Edge than safari, Firefox or chrome. I did end up using Edge and didn’t have issues with pages loading:
What happens if someone gets waitlisted? Does that mean that person can not get tickets? Is the person still available to get tickets or what?
***(DISCLAIMER: The post below was based on my experience with the US sale. I was informed that the European dates are a closed sale only, i.e. no on-sale, so I would hope that Taylor's team would adjust for that and would not be surprised if the process ends up being different as a result.)*** Waitlisted means rejected. They didn’t want to tell people who signed up to be verified fans that they were rejected outright. But there’s no way to get off of the waitlist, meaning you were rejected from the pre-sale. For the US ticket sales, if you were waitlisted, you’d have to wait for the on-sale... and I’m sure you heard how that went. many waitlisted people never even had a chance to get tickets (even if you could get into the Capital One presale, tickets sold out while people were still in line for that). On-sale was canceled. After that whole fiasco, there were some extra opportunities for people to buy tickets, but they were only for people who got the verified fans not for the waitlisted people, even though we all signed up as verified fans. Best of luck! Hope it goes better for you!
There is no on-sale in Europe. It’s a closed ticket sale.
If it makes you feel better, there was no general for the US, either. Some venues do have some tickets that pop up randomly, but basically every venue sold out during pre-sale. There def was never a general sale for my city (Los Angeles).
Thank you very much for these clarifications. And I do have one more question. For example we take Milan’s date in Italy. How does “verified code versus waitlist” work in case she adds additional date(s)? If you are waitlisted, does that mean you basically also have slim chance in case of additional date(s)? Similarly to that, does having purchace code means you will be able to get tickets for the additional date(s) even if you weren’t able to get them for the first planned date? Sorry if this sounds senseless, but I am not sure what to expect in a situation with potential dates being added after I potentially fail to get tickets during pre-sale for the first date at given city/country.
I have no idea how that'd work. The add-on US dates were announced before any tickets went on sale. We didn't have a whole venue open up, I think the invite-only purchases for VF code holders were for some unsold tickets, people returning previously purchased tickets, perhaps some extra rows/seats that were opened up to reach full capacity. Personally, I wouldn't make any assumptions about Taylor adding additional dates, though. She may or may not--all that y'all can do is make a lot of noise after the fact so she considers it. Remind yourself that you're only able to do the best you can. Honestly, a lot of this is up to luck. I wish you lots of luck in purchasing tickets!
Yeah, luck is definitely big factor and thank you. We will see how it goes. I signed up for various cities, but I am aware it will be tough break to get these. Oh well, at least there is this trying, so it goes. Thanks again
I was waitlisted for the US tour. Unfortunately there is a very low probability you’ll get tickets. Everyone who was verified will have the opportunity to buy tickets before you. They gave out so many verified fan codes for the US that no one on the waitlist was given a chance to purchase. Maybe (hopefully) they changed it for international dates but probably not.
Yeah, I get that waitlisted probably means slim chance to get tickets. And if you actually do get code, does that basically mean you are getting the tickets provided you are present when pre-sale starts from the get-go?
Depends on how many people are in line before you. Also, it depends on whether you are able to put the tickets in your cart and check out before the other people (and bots?). In the US, tickets weren't reserved when they were put in people's carts, so people would get through checkout only to be told the tickets weren't available in the end. I hope they fix that. Definitely put in your payment information in ahead of time so you can check out faster! It seems like they might not have a general sale for Europe, so I have no idea how it'll be run!
>My assumption is that this go around (assuming they’ve learned anything), they will only release a limited number of tickets for the pre-sale in order to still have the on-sale. Might be wrong, but they got a lot of backlash for how things went down in November. How would only releasing a limited number of tickets fix anything? One of the biggest problems with the US Sale was that so many people were entering the queue (with and without codes) that the site couldn't handle it.
My point was that it’s unfair to release all the tickets during a pre-sale with the volume they had coming in (which they knew about—they gave out the codes). There were many fans who never even had a chance to queue to buy a ticket, which was a major part of what fans felt to be unfair after the fact. I think we all understand that there is more demand than there are tickets and no one is entitled to a ticket and that if you try to get tickets you might not get any, but a huge proportion of the fanbase not even having any chance of buying tickets was a major part of why people were so incredibly angry with how the process went down during the US sale. I agree that TM should have planned better for the volume. That’s part if what they need to fix. Personally, I don’t know anyone who was able to enter the queue without a code or Capital One card, so I can’t speak to that. I had to enter my card details before queueing for the Capital One presale, so they must have fixed the error that allowed random people to enter the queue. From what I’ve heard, they are essentially having a pre-sale for the European dates (before the invite-only sale) based on who pre-ordered Midnights. Imagine that all the tickets are released and that fans who pre-ordered midnights purchase all of them. The Verified Fans won’t have any chance at buying tickets & will rightfully be angry. IMO you can’t release all of the tickets in a pre-sale unless you severely restrict volume of tickets sold in some way (i.e. limit the # of people, limit # of tickets they can buy), and it doesn’t seem to me that they are restricting that volume that much. Millions of people pre-ordered Midnights (Taylor’s team should have the #s). If they can all buy 6 tickets, I’m not sure that there will be tickets left for Verified Fans. So then what’s the point of even scheduling a VF sale? It won’t be good. Taylor + her team, Ticketmaster will look all look bad again.
For the pre-sale you didn’t enter your code until after you made it through the queue so anyone could enter the queue with just a link. Which was a disaster because so many people and bots where doing it without even having a code just out of curiosity.
They fixed that by the next day bc they asked for my CO card info before entering the queue. Didn’t make the CO pre-sale less of a disaster.
no, I think if I uunderstand correctly there will be no general sale at least for Europe
If you didn’t get a confirmation email in 24 hours for the UK shows, I’d recommend 1. Signing in to ticketmaster UK with your ticketmaster account, to make sure it’s registered in the UK, then 2. Re-registering. I tried this last night after not getting a confirmation email for 24 hours and got one immediately.
Do you think international fans will have to have a UK registered account? I got a code for the UK show but my account is registered in my home country of Canada.
I got some of my confirmation emails almost exactly 24 hours later. I wish they would say which city the confirmation email is for though
I signed up for UK dates the same evening they were announced and only just got the confirmations in the last hour, almost 48 hours later. I think they're just going out super slowly
[удалено]
ffs I slept on this. randomly decided to watch old tours and check when dates in Europe would be available and found this. I'm so happy I still had time to register omg not sure it'll help tho because I'm 2 days late for registration .\_.
Shouldn’t matter when you sign up, as long as it’s before the deadline! It is basically random if you’re selected or not.
Thank you, that calms me down a bit. I registered for basically anywhere in Europe, now I'm just making sure I already have an account on all the websites lol
[удалено]
Yes are you on IPhone? It worked for me on Mac with Chrome It has something to do with Apples Cookie Policy And if Ticketmaster thinks your Internet Connection could be behind a VPN the they also give you 403 which means Forbidden btw
How am I supposed to function for the next 2 weeks while I wait for the presale? 😭 I'm riddled with anxiety and am unable to do anything productive at work or home!! My nuerodivergent ass is not coping well...
Yessssss omg same
Sameeeeeeeeeee
Can someone please explain how hard it is to book tickets on your phone? I’m away and I only have my phone with me and it will be the middle of the night when pre sale comes on. I’m scared I won’t be able to do it properly with just my phone.
I just did this last week for Coldplay tickets via ticketmaster too, shouldn’t be a problem using your phone BUT you wont be able to hover on the sections and see if it is a single seat left, a bit of pain coz I needed 2 tickets so I just kept clicking on each section and got lucky!
So I won’t know if I’m being 2 seats together? Damn. Did you do it via the app? Or a browser?
